Wait o...I want to ask, Danny still has the second sons commanded by her former lover she left when she sailed with the unsolid and dothraki to take over Kings landing. Since her current army has been severally battered, why can't she make contact to them to help her take Kings landing?

There are no ships to ferry them through to westourous.... The only way to checkmate cersie is by burning them all.... No time to listen to Dumb-Smart Tyrion.

I need Dany bae to go haywire briefly.
If she had listened to Olenna, you all and ungrateful Northerners wouldn't be insulting her.



@bold got me cracking... grin grin , I'm tired of arguing with Sansa's fans abeg.



I miss olenna's dialogue (the Queen Game of Savage)

Ser Bronn's dialogue was lovely in the last episode (that guy they mad)... I also enjoyed The hound and Arya's dialogue those two have plenty things in common and they don't even know.

Jon isn't a man of many words. You should have seen that already.

Yea true that...but the way he felt for Ygritte you could see it in his eyes. Jon's feeling for Dany is different (more like he's forcing it), maybe because he found out that She's his aunt sha, but the truth is Dany loves him more.

It seems as if Jon doesn't love Dany (Lust yes! but not Love), Jon to me is behaving like a fvckboi... He has never really declared his love to Dany; any small thing he will just grab Dany's waist and be kisssing... grin

Dany has countless time express love to Jon, and also saved his ass more than twice. What is Jon's plan??

That's why there is something called Willing Suspension of Disbelief. All audiences have to practice it but it can be broken by events like the one in discussion.


They only made the attempt after danaerys came close to them and then ran away. Why didn't they do it while she was close?


And that's why there is suspension of disbelief. And even allowing it, there are plot holes. You can't just say that movies aren't real so don't criticise them. This is one of the reasons Nollywood is trash. You don't criticise it.


And they cannot execute that twist because it will be ridiculed and cost them a lot of money. Good, critically acclaimed films and series do not use this logic you use when making scenes and plot.


They don't but we accept them of suspension of disbelief. We also accept them because this is the magic system GRRM has introduced to us. For him to suddenly have characters do shit that has no foreshadowing so late in the show because it's magic and doesn't make sense will be an insult to the intelligence of fans. He knows this and won't do this.


Because of WSOB(willing suspension of disbelief). We know the dragons can't exist but we accept it because otherwise, there would be no story.

What we won't accept is when the dragons start doing things GRRM didn't tell us they could do or told us they couldn't do. If viserion and rhaegal were to come back to life and start bringing people back to life with their fire just like that with no reason, do you think fans would use your reasoning and clap for the show?


No. But with the way the scene went, drogon should have died as well. That's my complaint.


I want a good scene. If drogon had died I would say it was bad as well.

That's the problem with that whole thing. On no level does it make sense. If they wanted rhaegal dead, why not have him die in the battle of winterfell?

You are forgetting that Drogon has been shot by the scorpion arrow before and he survived (his armour is that thick).

Drogon is street (not a butty dragon grin ) and way smarter than Viserion or Rhaegal put together. He has been speared at mareen and survived, he was stabbed countlessly at winterfell by wights and survived. Drogon has dodged the NK spear twice (it only took one throw to bring down Viserion) one was at close range, he's that swift.

Beside, Rhaegal was already weak coming to dragonstone, one reason Jon didn't ride him down south.

There's no plothole there, We have all seen (reality or movie) where bullets will be shot at an individual and none will hit the target close by and might hit a stranger far away from the scene...

No. Most movies do not make any sense in real life but they are entertaining all the same. They are mere fiction and the stories go the way the writers want it to go, not the way it happens in real life.

From what I saw, the made attempt to take down drogon too but Danny escaped. As far as I know that's enough explanation in that scene.

The fact is that, in movies, there will always be something that won't go the way you would have expected or the way natural reason would have directed. But that's why they are fiction. Not real.

And about Jon growing wings and flying or cercie and Danny playing, it could happen if the show runners decide to twist the plot to allow for that and give an explanation for it perhaps by introducing some sort of supernatural factor Into the story line. Although that will be an extreme twist, but in the world of movies anything is possible.

After all, it is in its same movie that a young boy can warg animals and claim to see into the past and future. And dead people coming back to life as zombies, a girl that rides dragons and is not burnt by fire etc. Do those things even make any sense to you or have any logical reason or real life possibility?

And don't forget that dragons are not even real or natural creatures. I wonder why you guys didn't see any fault in that creature but saw so many wrongs in the sequence of events?

You've said it all....

Someone was complaining that Jon let-off Ghost far too easy. I'm sure if ghost rode down south with Jon to kingslanding it will be another plothole; because we all know direwolves won't survive the heat down south.

Seems you guys missed the conversation she had with Eurion with Qyburn by the side.

"When the war is won the lion shall rule the land, the *crackened [sic] shall rule the sea....and our child shall one day rule them all".

The last I checked, the first time they both fvcked was few episodes ago. By then, Jamie had already left. The exchange of glance between eurion and Qyburn should confirm to you who the father of the baby supposedly is.

In case you didn't notice, Cercei was drinking heavily even the morning after they fvcked. She wasn't pregnant then...so the dwarf wouldn't know. Unless of course Cercei has been lying both to Jamie and Euron.

if Cercei is really pregnant, who is the father? She has hinted to Euron that he is the father, the dwarf is not supposed to know that! So Euron should actually be worried right now that!


Like I said earlier Cersie is the smartest lannister , she has been pregnant long before season 8 and Jamie knew that before heading to winterfell.

She only told Euron what Euron needs to hear.


Cersie detest Euron but she needs allies and a commander to lead the troops...trust me if Cersie wins the war she will cut out Euron.

A better contemplation would have been how the dwarf knew his sister was pregnant.

I mean, like wtf? He moved from telling who a virgin was by just looking, then moved to knowing who is pregnant!


The virginity of Brienne was just a wide guess by Tyrion, no one was sure if she had been with a man or woman before except of cause Jamie who knew when they were riding down south together in season 3.

I'm sure u watched episode 2, when Jamie revealed to Tyruon that cersie was really pregnant

Wars are not fought and won like that.

A time for battle, is a time for battle.
A time for war negotiations, is a time for negotiations.

Battles are fought and won honorably.

Even if Cercei had ordered for them to be shot at, the damage will be minimal, because they will have time to defend themselves with shields and as we all could see, that the dragon was far far away at the back of the armies of Danny.

If the dragon could Dodge a powerful spear at close range at the sea, i dont think cercei had a chance against the dragon at that range.
And lastly, Cercei knew that Jon and the armies of the north were on their way.

So its better to wait for all the armies and allies of Danny and let the war begin proper.

And that were not all the armies of both Cercei and Danny.

Those armies there were just for escort in negotiating the release of Messandie and the surrender of Cercei.

So i think the writers knew what they did in that scene.

Exactly my thought...and again she didn't kill Tyrion because that would have been the same fate of Qyburn ( and I don't think she would want to risk qyburn's Knowledge all in the quest for revenge). Cersie is smart and very calculative, arguably the smartest lannister in the show.

Seun:
Dany, Tyrion and Greyworm were certainly within the range of the impossibly accurate and powerful scorpions that Euron used to shoot Rhaegal down and destroy Dany’s ships earlier. They had the high ground too. The carelessness of the show runners is amazing.

Yes you are right the scorpion arrow was in range.

However, Dany could have also flew behind and Dracarys them all ... The parley and negotiation of terms are called for a reason: (Try to talk Cersie into releasing Meissande). In medieval times parley are used to negotiate terms of war and also to intimidate opposition (a form of show off).


The truth is the odds of dany winning the war right now is far less.

I think only a very good battle strategy, army of the second sons, dorme and the remaining iron born still loyal to Yari can make the odds be even at least.

Cersei is one of the nicest villians I have seen. You have the chance to kill Tyrion. Yet you missed that chance Even right there she has the chance to kill Dany and her weary unsullied.
She has a kind heart.

@bolded... Dany and the unsullied were out of the archers range... It's normal in a parley setting.

How did Tyrion know qyburn's name. I can't remember them having being together. Okay maybe the meeting at dragonpit allowed it.


Qyburn is the hand of the queen... Any peasant farmer in the north would have known that by now, considering how news flies at westerous.



Ever wonder how hot pie knew Jon won the battle of the bastards despite being distant away from the north?? News fly my brother, News fly cool

You lot keep complaining about Sansa not liking Danny. Is she supposed to like the daughter of the mad king?
Is she supposed to like the woman who made her brother bend the knee to her?
By the way, she doesn't care about who sits in the Iron throne. All she wants is the independence of the North from the Capital.

OK let's say Dany sail back to esos to regroup, can your darling Sansa keeps the north away from Cersie by herself?? Which yeye independence when all the house in the north is gone and buried, only winterfell is standing in the north

Emilia Clarke’s acting has really improved in Season 8. I especially noticed it in Episode 4. She conveyed the loneliness and sadness that Dany felt during the victory party, her desperation to keep Jon’s claim to the throne a secret, and her struggle to contain her rage after Missandei was executed. I feel very bad about what the writers are doing to her character in order to turn her into a villain by force.


I guess in life people will always forget the good deeds and remember the bad, in the case of Danny I will always remember all her good deeds.

She has my full support to be a villain now, after the mountain chopped off my Crush's head embarassed

Is it a university hostel or a private hostel in the university environment? If a school hostel, then it's impressive that UNIJOS has hostels with private rooms for their students.

Naraguta zion hostel is a university hostel (one of the cleanest public hostel I've seen), they also have single and Self con (PG student hostel close by).

Abuja hostel however is hostel for 3 and hostel for 6 and village hostel (4 in a room)..


All in the university vicinity

How come she lived in the university hostel and nobody knew she was dead till she started decaying? Didn't she have room mates?

Her parents reported to the school security that she was missing, yet they didn't go to her room to look for her. How come it took other students noticing the odour emanating from the room for the security to go and search there?

May her soul rest in peace.

The said hostel is a single room for a single student..

Hate him, like him, call him a knower of nothing. Jon Snow is still my man. No one is more just, more loyal and more lovely than he is. He's Ice and Fire..... This song is about him... I've been a fan since S1 and NOTHING, not even GRRM can make me dislike him.

#TeamJonSnow #HeIsWhatIsGoodForTheRealm

I'm also Team Arya tho...... Everyone else can die, I don't give a f but Jon and Arya are bae kiss kiss

Used to like Tyrion for his wits but he's currently witless but a part of me still likes him.

I feel for Dany tho, she struggled to get all of these only to see them crumble. She's done for!! All she ever loved was the Iron Throne... She even loved the Iron Throne more than Jon(that got me very very angry). She could have agreed that she and Jon ruled. If Jon were to be in her shoes, he would have gone for that option and that's why Jon is a very good leader.

Sanso fans might come at me for this but WTF!!


Sansa needs to know that in all her smartness , it doesn't change the north from being defenseless.(someone was even wondering how Ser Bronn sneaked into winterfell ). Most houses in the north are gone, no allies and all she could think of was to hate on the very person that saved her. She was even saying it was arya that killed the NK, will arya had come any where close to the NK if not for Dany's dragon and armies?

She's obviously jealous of Danny and that's normal but being hateful to the one that save your sorry lady assss is quite crazy.


She can't profit anything from the war, whether Dany wins or losses (most of her northern allies are dead and depleted). She can't defend the north from Cersie or anyone that wants to attack if they choose to attack ; so her motive of being spiteful to Danny is just plain hatefulness.

Just few minutes of telling you an important secret she has already spread it out (so much for being SMART).

Her hate for the Dragon queen is too obvious.

Dany has done a lot for house stark and the North.
why can't she show a little appreciation.

Dany shud call the second sons from Meereen to help her since her army and allies have been depleted. she has even lost another Dragon.

If you noticed towards the end of episode 2, the generals of the nightking army were in front. How come we didn't see them at all through out the battle except when nightking wanted to finish bran.

That's Because if they get killed many wight will die in that process.... It was wise for them to stay back, that's why when Jon saw them he wanted to melt them with Rhageon's fire before the night king protected them with ice dust and darkness.
